“Take Care of Maya” Producer Caitlin Keating on Making One of Netflix’s Most Riveting Documentaries of the Year

Perhaps you’re one of the dozens of millions of people around the world who has seen the critically-acclaimed documentary “Take Care of Maya” on Netflix. It’s the heart-wrenching story of a young girl suffering from Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, who lands permanently in the hospital, and whose family is accused of making her sick. While the Child Welfare System is in place to protect children, naturally, what happens when parents are wrongly accused of child abuse? CAN YOU IMAGINE? Well, it happens. And maybe more than we think.  In this conversation with Catt today, we hear from the woman hellbent on getting this story told to the masses. Filmmaker Caitlin Keating takes us through the grueling four-year process from pitching the documentary to Netflix to getting the story onto screens across the world, and also preparing for the upcoming trial where they’ll dissect the countless harrowing events of the last several years. Will this be the final chapter in this seemingly never-ending saga?
